Overview
Historical Perspective
- There is limited information about the historical perspective of PSVT.
- In January 1998 the first epidemiologic study of the general population in USA was published [1].
- Catheter-based radiofrequency ablation has improved the treatment of PSVT by precise ablation of the abnormal accessory pathway. First catheter ablations were in the early to mid-1980s, since then it has improved progressively especially in terms of safety and specificity [2].
